Great nose with flowers and honey but wine was too acidic and had fairly subtle chemical taste.

Drinkable Albarino. Not as good as the Spanish.

Have to disagree with some other reviews, this tastes kind of fatty for an Albarino to me (noted after reviewing mine is the only 2015 so far - maybe this vintage is different?). Not bad on the nose, when I first opened it was greener with more lemon and green apple notes. Now I'm getting more of the honeysuckle advertised on the bottle. Just too round on the palate for me. Worked just fine with shrimp and grits and a citrus tart but won't seek out again.

Trader Joe's 2015 Albariño Petit Reserve: Today’s gardening partner. It is fun and crisp with bright citrus flavors upfront. This bottle served its purpose and is only $8. Cheers! # Albariño #PasoRobles #cawine #wine #winelover #wineblooger #winewriter #wineconsumer #myvinespot #TraderJoes
